Ranbir Kapoor is very special for ex-girlfriend Deepika

They broke up after few months of dating and again bonded
professionally and personally. They set an example for the couple who drifted
apart and never came together, yes we are speaking about two charming actors of
Bollywood and one time lover Ranbir Kapoor and Deepika Paadukone. Deepika in a
candid conversation accepted that her ex-beau Ranbir has always been special to
her.

Their latest movie, ‘Yeh Jawaani Hain Deewani’ spelled magic
at the box-office and their chemistry spoke billions words. Audience loved them
to see on-screen again after ‘Bachna Ae Haseeno’ and after their separation.

"I
have always believed that chemistry can`t be created between two people. You
either have it or you don`t. The script can only enhance it. I am glad that
Ranbir and I do," said Deepika, who was seen with Ranbir in 2008 hit
"Bachna Ae Haseeno".

"He has been a very special person for me in my life. I am glad that we
share an on- screen chemistry. I am looking forward to doing more films with
him," the 27-year-old told IANS in an interview.

Deepika believes competition is good as it keeps her going and boosts her to do
better work.

"I think it completely depends on what each one`s understanding of
competition is. For me, competition is good; that is what keeps me on my toes
and keeps me going. I am always trying to better my own work, do better than my
earlier films...do films that are challenging and exciting for me. That is my
competition," she said.

What does success mean the ‘Cocktail’ actress?

"At
some level, I feel it is nice to know that a film of yours is doing well at the
box office and has also got great reviews. That feels like success," she
explained.

"The best feeling is when you are remembered for the character you play on
the screen and people associate you with that character. There is no better
feeling than that feeling," added the actress of hits like "Love Aaj
Kal", "Housefull", and "Cocktail".

Deepika said she works really hard and enjoys her work.

"I have worked really hard with a lot of commitment, dedication and
sacrifice. But it is not like a race. I am not looking at the finishing line.
The opportunities in this industry are limitless and the idea is to always do
something new and exciting and enjoy your work," she added.

Deepika finds her ‘Cocktail character Veronica more challenging.

"In terms of what was more challenging, it was Veronica. But I think I
have got more appreciation for this film (`Yeh Jawaani...`)," she said.

"While I feel like a lot of people have loved me as Veronica, they love
this (Naina) even more, which I find surprising as for me Veronica was more
challenging and is completely against the type of person I am. For me, Naina
Talwar is the person I am. I completely identify with that character," she
said.

The actress is playing different roles in her forthcoming films "Chennai
Express" and "Ram Leela".

"The next two films are very special. I play a south Indian girl in
`Chennai Express` and a Gujarati in `Ram Leela`. I won`t go into the details of
the characters or the films. These two films will be different from what we
have done before," she said, and signed off saying: "I want to enjoy
the success of YJHD".
